… Sleep and Dream

In a tiny little cave  A dog is sleeping on his back  Iron chains around his leg  But he’s purring loud enough to snap  I see blood around his snout  A smile that’s bigger than his mouth  They come to hurt him every day  To stomp him back into a crouch  They will never quite cut through  Cause he’s got a little piece of you  The time gets longer every day  But he sits there smiling in his cave  They will never quite cut through we’ve have  a little  piece of you And all the spite you ever spate  betrays your monument to fate  Fall asleep and dream.  Salt in your skin  That leaves a small scar  It sits there in time A red shiny star  Salt in your skin  That leaves a small scar  It sits there murdering time  A red shiny star  Shadow sweet in your bones  Helps to know what you said  The hand on your skin  Brings a war to your face  Fall asleep and dream now  Windows are made in your sighs  The piece you had hid to hide  The cave walls high in your mind  Fall asleep and dream now  Your heart is ready to die  Your jaws open wide  Windows are made in your mind
